Answer:

a) The population of prairie dogs after nine months is 280.

b) P(t) = 30 + 30 · t - t²/4 for 0 ≤ t ≤ 60

Explanation:

Hi there!

We have the following information:

The initial population is P(0) = 30.

The rate of growth of the population is the following:

P´(t) = 30 - t/2 where

a) Let´s find the function of the population of prairie dogs P(t). For that, let´s integrate the P´(t) function between t = 0 and t and between P = 30 and P

P(t) = ∫P´(t)

P´(t) = dP/dt = 30 - t/2

Separating variables:

dP = (30 - t/2) dt

∫dP = ∫(30 - t/2) dt

P - 30 = 30 · t - t²/4

P(t) = 30 + 30 · t - t²/4

The population of prairie dogs at t = 9 months will be equal to P(9):

P(9) = 30 + 30(9) - (9)²/ 4

P(9) = 280 prairie dogs

The population of prairie dogs after nine months is 280.

b) P(t) = 30 + 30 · t - t²/4 (it was obtained in part a).

What type of volcano only ever has quiet eruptions?
77julia77 [94]
In contrast to quiet eruptions, other volcanoes erupt explosively. Mount St. Helens, for instance, spewed lava high in the air when it erupted. Two things control the type of eruption: how much water vapor and other gasses are in the magma and whether the magma is basaltic or granitic. Basaltic magma tends to ooze out gently in a thin, quiet eruption, while granitic magma is thicker and becomes trapped inside the volcano's vents. Once the pressure grows enough to force out the magma, it explodes.

if C is the vector sum of A and B C=A+B what must be true about directions and magnitude of A and B if C=A+B? what must be true
Hunter-Best [27]

The vector sum is the algebraic sum if the two vectors have the same direction.

The sum vector is zero if the two vectors have the same magnitude and opposite direction

Vector addition is a process that can be performed graphically using the parallelogram method, see  attached, where the second vector is placed at the tip of the first and the vector sum goes from the origin of the first vector to the tip of the second.

There are two special cases where the vector sum can be reduced to the algebraic sum if the vectors are parallel

case 1. if the two vectors are parallel, the sum vector has the magnitude of the sum of the magnitudes of each vector

case 2. If the two vectors are antiparallel and the magnitude of the two vectors is the same, the sum gives zero.

In summary in the sum of vectors If the vectors are parallel it is reduced to the algebraic sum, also in the case of equal magnitude and opposite direction the sum is the null vector

In a pendulum experiment the pendulum moves from one side to the other side in 0.6 second. Calculate the period of the pendulum.
-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

1.2 s

Explanation:

The period of a pendulum is the time it takes to complete one cycle, as in move and return to its initial state, for example going from one side to the other and coming back. If this pendulum goes from one side to the other in 0.6 s, it will take it the doble of that time to perform a cycle, and that is the period

T = 2 * 0.6 s = 1.2 s
